Dao Xiang Chinese Restaurant @ Nexus Bangsar South

Image
Still on my quest to explore Nexus Bangsar South, this time around I ended up at a surprisingly good chinese restaurant, Dao Xiang, serving really nice Shunde cuisine from the Guangdong province in China. It was my first time trying this cuisine, and I must say, it left a lasting impression on me. Check out below on what we had that evening. Dao Xiang Chinese Restaurant @ Nexus Bangsar South

Image
A new branch of Vision Space Optometrist just opened in Sunway Giza . I was at their launch a couple of days back, and I'm impressed with their very unique and niche brands of eyewear available.  This is their third optical centre located at B-15-G Sunway Giza, with two other optical centres located at Damansara Uptown and SS2 bungalow house.  Vision Space Optometrist New Opening @ Sunway Giza

3M Malaysia Cleaner, Clearer and Better Tasting Water - Malaysia Drinking Water Week

Image
Our body is made up of water, it runs in our blood, our brain, literally everywhere to keep it going. With that amount of liquid inside, it's safe to say we need to drink lots of water daily, and that's what 3M Malaysia is advocating with the launch of their Malaysia's 1st Drinking Water Week.  3M Malaysia Cleaner, Clearer and Better Tasting Water - Malaysia Drinking Water Week

DELL InnoLifestyle Bloggers Boot Camp - DELL All-in-One Desktop Series

Image
A blogger event, aptly named the DELL InnoLifestyle Blogger Boot Camp happened a couple of weeks back. I had the privilege to be invited as one of bloggers for a day of fun with an aim to learn up the latest Dell Inspiron 23 7000. The activities were pretty intense, at least for me, as we went on from learning about the All-In-One Desktop to baking and drama sketches.

Ramadan Buffet @ Kembali Kitchen, Ramada Plaza Dua Sentral Kuala Lumpur

Image
Another Ramadan buffet preview, watch out for more to come. This time around I was at  Kembali Kitchen, Ramada Plaza Dua Sentral Kuala Lumpur to savour their delectable buffet spread. Ramadan Al-Mubarak is the holy month of fasting for Muslim, which is also a time where the entire Muslim community come together to share with each other's joy, happiness and blessings. What better way that to do it through food. Ramadan Buffet @ Kembali Kitchen, Ramada Plaza Dua Sentral Kuala Lumpur

It's the season for Ramadan buffet previews again, where there will be an influx of ramadan themed posts.

Themed "Warisan Tradisi Kampung", their team of culinary experts whipped out a storm of mouth-watering traditional and international favourites.

Occubite Pastry Cafe @ Quill City Mall, Kuala Lumpur

Image
Occubite Pastry Cafe, another cafe that did not turn out like how I've expected it to be. With a name that reads pastries, I only expected pastries and cakes at their outlet in Quill City Mall. It was a pleasant surprise then, when multiple warm and savoury dishes were served. Check out what we had the other day when we were at Occubite. Occubite Pastry Cafe @ Quill City Mall, Kuala Lumpur

New Menu Launch @ The Gastro Project Petaling Jaya

Image
I reviewed The Gastro Project's Mother's Day Menu last week or so. Now I'm back with another post detailing the extensive new menu launched in April 2015 that's whipped up by Executive Chef Sazali at The Gastro Project who has vast experience in the F&B industry with notable experience at Kuala Lumpur’s premier fine-dining restaurant Cilantro.

That Foodie Place @ Midvalley Megamall

Image
That Foodie Place, an outlet on the 3rd floor mezzanine of Midvalley Megamall got me confused for a moment. My initial thoughts upon hearing the name would be a spot where foodies congregate to chomp down on some food. To my surprise, they do not serve food there, instead they have some really unique and nice coffee and teh tarik, aptly named That Iced Coffee and That Teh Tarik.  That Foodie Place @ Midvalley Megamall 

Ramen Kanbe @ Empire Damansara, Petaling Jaya

Image
Have you checked out Ramen Kanbe yet? A rather cozy japanese restaurant in Empire Damansara serving ramen and other japanese cuisine, we dropped by Ramen Kanbe the other day for a nice lunch date. Located in the building itself, it wasn't too hard to find. Check out what we had that afternoon.  Ramen Kanbe @ Empire Damansara, Petaling Jaya

Nam Heong Food Court @ Ipoh SoHo

Image
It was a fun trip up north the other day with a bunch of foodies and friends as we all packed into a Hyundai Starex and drove all the way to Nam Heong Food Court in Ipoh SoHo . Now Nam Heong has been a rather well known name, but I was totally awed by their new outlet. Housed in the same building and management as iMiirage, we were all set to nom into their fares the moment we reached Ipoh. Nam Heong Food Court @ Ipoh SoHo

Be Lohas Healthy Cuisine by BMS Organics @ 1 Utama Shopping Centre

Image
Fancy some healthy organic food? Then you must try out Be Lohas Healthy Cuisine by BMS Organics . I was there last week with the family to try out their fares, and I must say, it didn't taste too bad. I was initially rather apprehensive, as I am more of a meat person, but they did surprise with excellent food. Check out what we had that evening below.

Cloudy Bay Seafood & Duck Tasting Trail 2015

Image
So there I was a couple of weeks back for Cloudy Bay Seafood & Duck Tasting Trail's promotion where we tried out some wonderful fares from Tanzini, W.I.P, and Hubba Hubba.

Cafe Malaysia 2015 @ Matrade Exhibition & Convention Centre, Kuala Lumpur

Image
The cafe scene in Malaysia is booming, lots of folks having a field day trying out all the new cafes serving specialty coffee, and much more. There I was last week for the inaugural trade and consumer event in Malaysia dedicated to the café and teahouse communities.  The three-day event, CAFE Malaysia 2015 at MATRADE Exhibition and Convention Centre was packed with visitors from the time it opened its doors on May 7, 2015 right up to when it closed its doors at 5pm on May 9, 2015.

Dutch Lady Milk Milestone Walk & Consumer Launch @ Sunway Convention Centre

Image
A couple of weeks back, right before Martin got hospitalized due to dengue, he was happily enjoying himself at the Dutch Lady Milk Milestone Walk and Consumer Launch at Sunway Convention Centre. It took me quite a while to get this post up, as I wanted him fully well and active again before I edit the photos taken. Anyway, Dutch Lady recently launched its newly improved formulated milk powder for children, where they held a consumer event which was very interesting, to say the least.

Chili ESPRESSO @ NEXUS Bangsar South, Kuala Lumpur

Image
The next outlet in my quest to explore NEXUS Bangsar South so happened to have a fellow Penangite as its owner. Part of NEXUS Bangsar South's new Chillin' At Nexus campaign brought me to Chili ESPRESSO Nexus Bangsar South . Located on the ground floor, with brightly coloured facade, they do have some really friendly staff welcoming you in the moment you pass their eatery. Check out what we had that evening.

Parents Day Dinner Menu Promotion @ SKY360°, One City

Image
Did you know there's a rather nice restaurant located at Level R (Rooftop) at One City Subang Jaya? Aptly named SKY360°, with a nice panoramic skyline view of the city, the M.I.C.E@One City team has kicked off their Parents' Day promotion from April 2015 until end of June 2015. What better way to celebrate parents' day than by treating them to a wonderful meal at a rather cool spot. Parents Day Dinner Menu Promotion @ SKY360°, One City
